Nightfall makes a bigger storage necessary?? - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

Helios Skyfire · Nov 03, 2006, 05:02 PM // 17:02

I dunno - implementing housing just for the benefit of storage seems like a lot of wasted effort on ANet's part.

Besides, most people don't play GW to be Sally Homemaker.

I agree with the thread starter about the fact that you need to keep more stuff to add to your heroes equipment. I don't have Nightfall, so i dont really know how heroes work, but if it's similar to henchies, heroes should have an invenoty THEMSELVES. I mean, henchies get drops, and i hope heores do get too, so why not have them get their own inventory? It may take lots of more time, because you need - I dont know how much heroes you can have - more inventories to manage, and in my opinion, 6 inventories for all myc haracters + 1 storage is hard enough..

Sorry for the double posting, the PC lagged a bit and i thought it wasnt doing anything so i clicked again, can anyone please tell me how to remove a post, as i see only a button called edit.

I think putting another 5 slots in the belt pouch and bags is a GREAT idea. If you have 8 chars across all 3 accounts that would be an extra 120 empty slots.
Having hero self-storage for their stuff sounds good too.

I don't have NF yet and even with a mule I have storage problems. I can just imagine what it will be like with all the new collector's stuff and hero weapons.
All the holiday headgear pretty much negates all my belt pouches, not to mention the other goodies we've been given for halloween and wintersday.(not complaining about the stuff, thanks, Anet!)

And yes, I am a bit of a packrat.

Maria The Princess · Nov 03, 2006, 05:55 PM // 17:55

the lack of storage is VERY anoying! heck, its been anoying even since Factions came out, now its getting rediculous.

and i have 2 mules....

PanGammon · Nov 03, 2006, 05:56 PM // 17:56

Rune Storage/ Insignia Storage would be nice...........

DeanBB · Nov 03, 2006, 06:01 PM // 18:01

I guess the storage upgrade for Nightfall was the bonus character slot we got for the prerelease pack.

ForgeWhelp · Nov 03, 2006, 06:04 PM // 18:04

Yeah if this were A petition, I'd sign it...heh

Actually, IIRC, Gaile Gray did say something about a few things not making it for release - but still planned for close after in NF - including Guild Storage among other things - I'll see if I can find the post...but my search fu is not very strong...

dansamy · Nov 03, 2006, 06:31 PM // 18:31

I think 5 slots per character additional storage in Xunlai would make me happy. I'd even pay another 25g each character in order to get it. 6 characters = 30 slot Xunlai, 8 characters = 40 slot Xunlai. Having 8 characters share the space originally intended for four is just ridiculous.

Helios Skyfire · Nov 03, 2006, 06:37 PM // 18:37

Ok, I did find SOME of what she said in another section - But I'm pretty sure she mentioned guild hall storage somewhere at some point, too.

Anyway, here's what I found on post-NF improvement talk:

**cosyfiep** · Nov 03, 2006, 07:17 PM // 19:17

yes!! more storage is badly needed!!
If our heros could each have their own 'bag' (5 items) that would save up some space since we have to carry their alternate weapons.....

and dye storage, and key rings (a ring for say 5 keys at a time).....

right now 4 of my characters are completely full, 3 are near ------so I play only 2 characters right now (one newbie and one tyria trying to get to the end of the game)....otherwise the others have stuff stashed on them and if I get more of that stuff I have to dump it in storage, log out, log on with mule--rinse and repeat if that mule doesnt have all those items.....arrrrghhh!

and we wont even mention armor (I have a mesmer, need I say more?)

jimmy_logic · Nov 03, 2006, 11:02 PM // 23:02

I really need some storage space... I ain't gonna say anymore than that. Something akin to a Wal*Mart warehouse would be preferable. You know you got problems when you craft too many armors or have materials sitting in your primary storage and on your characters. Albeit I still have used 3 of my other slots... still this idea needs some serious though by ANet.

4ssassin · Nov 03, 2006, 11:06 PM // 23:06

/NOT SIGNED Anet gives a small storage to stop hording. if you are allowed to hoard massive amounts of items/armor/insignias etc, it would throw the eco even more out of balance than it is now. im surprised Anet gave a storage upgrade. dye hoarding? insignia hoarding? yes, lets let all the high lvl players hoard the signias, runes, and dyes, thus having none sold to the merchants, thus lets them control the entire eco, screwing over all new players for the rest of guild wars lifespan.

1st of all this isnt a poll or a petition so there is nothing to sign... 2ndly, not every player collects stuff just to sell it. I wanna keep things that i find for personal use. I keep my dyes because i know i will buy more armor (for new chars) and i wanna dye it to make it look nicer. We need insignas and runes for Elona armor and not just for us, but for a whole army of hero's too (i already have 9 hero's and i am not even at 40% of the game).

We are just tired of keep things organized so that we can play in a normal way... we dont want to sell everything we find because we are running out of storage-/bagspace. Thank god anet solved the stacking problem with dyes (only that already saves many slots)

Tbh, i doubt we will see extra storagespace for stuff that do not stack (like runes), but anet, please give us at least some extra space so that we dont need to do quest/missions with full bags all the time...

Gorebrex · Nov 04, 2006, 02:01 AM // 02:01

I agree, more storage is a must now, and people ARENT usually hording, Im of the opinion that thats a rarity. Think about this, an ele needs 4 sets of armor, 1 for each element. Add in 2 wands for each(1 for +15 energy, 1 for max damage), we have a total of 28 items already, and thats just weapons and armor! No offhands yet, No Id,salvage, Expert salvage kits, and 28/45 slots are used. add in those kits, its 31/45 slots. Of course, theres the 4 slots per character in Xunlai storage, but with 2 more characters from Factions, and now 2 more(afiak)from Nightfall, that goes down to 2-3 slots each. Thats assuming a linked account, and if you have an unlinked account, its much worse, and also bad if you bought adiditonal character slots. I think many are using those as mules, correct me if Im wrong. I plan to get Factions next month, and 1 character will definatley be a mule. Ive thought about it for months, and never once considered doing it any other way, due to the necessity of a mule for me.

Linksys · Nov 04, 2006, 02:27 AM // 02:27

Like I said in another forum, we need more storage space. When GW came out, four characters shared the storage. Now we have twice that many or more characters.

jimmy_logic · Nov 04, 2006, 02:38 AM // 02:38

We could always have ANet control the economy by controlling the price of the commodities. That way it won't encourage hoarding as prices will remain the same regardless of what happens. This will also add stability to the economy, this can be done it two ways direct control of the prices (merchants are agents for ANet) or control via drops (using demand and supply). What do you guys think?
